i know this sounds weird but i have a symptom i haven't heard of yet. when i

blow my nose i have black specks in my nasal mucus. the rest is clear but

sometimes it looks like specks and other times it looks stringy. thought i

would put it out there to see if anyone has any idea what this bizarre

symptom is. btw i do not have a nasal infection.

One obvious thing that comes to mind is you have been breathing them in.

What is your environment like? Could it have been airborne?

That has happened to me in the past, well at least the back speckles, but I

believe its because we have a fireplace.

In our house it usually means we've waited too long to change the furnace

filter. Also happens to all of us when we go camping and sit around the campfire

or drive a lot on very dusty, dry dirt roads.

le,

I know you stated you do not have a fungal sinus infection.  But that is where

I would look first.  Do you have seaonal allergies, Multiple chemical

sensitivities?  Prior ear infections?  Headaches behind the eyes or along your

nose?  Has your environment ever experienced water damage? HVAC systems are

notorious for spores if not maintained and changed like it should be.  Mold is

not uncommon, and spores are normally found in the environment, and can be quite

a roadblock in the treatments against Llyme.  Lyme messes with our immune

system responses, which can add to the probability. 

Unresponsive Lyme and company has been associated with fungal infections and

mold exposure through the environment and person.  Additionally, if you have

taken antibiotics even once, a change in normal flora can result.  Have you

ever had or treated for oral thrush?  It can easily go down the esophagus as up

the phayrnx.  Please don't completely discount the posibility.

Most of the time this is dust, etc. However, on the show " monsters inside me "

there was something like this. The person had a parasistic lung worm and these

were the eggs. The person had a long term cough and other problems which I

don't remember.
